Lots to like here. A little more poppy than I was expecting, and then took a prog turn. I can't help but feel it's not as sharp as some of their best work but I think the quality was really high throughout. Considering it's from the '60s I think it deserves a certain amount of credit for pioneering.

Think it had moments but wasn't particularly compelling. Actually listened to this as part of the 'Born to Die - Paradise edition' which combines two of her records into one, I think most people consider this the 'real' album but I think there was a really clear difference between the two halves, with this being the inferior one. Perhaps pulled down by its lack of big singles.

Really strong peaks, probably my favourite of her albums. Actually listened to this as part of the 'Born to Die - Paradise edition' which combines two of her records into one, I think most people consider this the 'real' album but I think there was a really clear difference between the two halves.

Of the three Pitbull albums I've just listened to back to back, this one was clear. Probably as good as it gets with Mr Worldwide.

Music for a time and a place that wasn't here or now

Some interesting sampling. Got into it about half way through

I don't dislike this new Coldplay sound at all. But I do think this album was essentially a carbon copy of the previous album, perhaps without some of the peaks but hit a good level throughout.

My favourite track, Babelogue, stopped just as it was getting going. Feels like an album that, if it could’ve kicked on a bit more, would’ve been immense.
